Letter to the Editor:
By Larry Parsons Warner, OK

Congresswoman Stephanie Bice refuses to hold in person town hall meetings, saying the ones who show up are bused in from out of state. Markwayne Mullin and Josh Brecheen say the same thing.

As proof that the phone(y) town hall meetings are only for sycophants, a caller told Bice he lied about the question he was gonna ask, knowing if he told the truth he’d be denied.

Some senators were working to get back funding for NPR stations in their states for their Native American constituents. Mullin boasts of his Cherokee heritage, but when he had the opportunity to do the same for Oklahoma, he hid behind his desk like he did on Jan. 6.

He claims he considers Trump to be a dear friend. There goes any doubt about his judgement of character.

Every senator and representative from this state proudly voted for the big devilish bill. There goes any doubt about a soul.

Every morning they think of ways to please the chosen one and cut the paychecks and throats of the ones paying their salaries. It’s to the point where, just like him they lie with every breath.

Do they pray to God with those lying mouths?
